Honey Glazed Ham
This ham tastes very much like the famous honey baked ham. It costs much less, but tastes as good. Add rosemary and thyme to give the dish a great flavor. If you prepare double the amount mentioned in the recipe, keep in mind that the sauce will take longer to reduce.
Cooking time: 1 hr 15 mins.
Ingredients:
- Ham(ready-to-eat) - 5 pounds.
- Whole cloves - 1/4 cup.
- Dark corn syrup - 1/4 cup.
- Honey - 2 cups.
- Butter - 2/3 cup.
Preparation:
1) Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
2) Score ham, and stud with the whole cloves. In a foil lined pan place the ham.
3) Heat the corn syrup, honey and butter in the top half of a double boiler. While baking ham, keep the glaze warm.
4) Brush glaze over ham, and bake in the preheated oven for an hour and 15 minutes. Baste ham every 10 to 15 minutes with the honey glaze. Turn on broiler to caramelize the glaze during the last 4 - 5 minutes of baking.
